"a Chiel Among U.s."

DR.. Sigel Roush, "chieP' from the
Buckeye State, and travelling correspon-
dent of two Ohio papers, the Hi lsboro
NEWS. HERALD and the Lebanon Star is
among our towns.people taking notes"
for his western readers. The Doctor is
so charmed with the Bluff City, its
hospitable citizens, its breezy location,
its recent improvements, it's lovely
suburbs, &C., that he has prolonged his
sojourn here several days beyond the
day fixed for his departure. In his cor
respondents to Western journals, his
views of the South and Southerners are
expressed with the fervor and fearless
ness of truth-with the independence of
one who "sees things for himself and
dares to write about them just as they
are." In his communications home,
there is studious and generous remem-
brance of the fact that the North and
South are one in greatness and in glory
one in peace and war-one in destiny
"a fact, which will insure this traveller
an honest welcome in every part of the

DR.. Helt's Sermon.

The Baccalaureate sermon delivered
by DIR. Helt at the M. E. Church last
Sunday evening was very mastery ef-
fort. The definition of the limits OF
human knowledge, the proof that it is
relative and imperfect even when it is
the result of lifetime of laborious re.
search, upsets the chief sophistry of the
largest class of anti Christian scoffers.
Our knowledge of things, natural and
supernatural, is but shallow in compare
son with the deep and thorough under.
standing possible to an infinite mind.
The uppermost teaching of the discourse
was the great difference between kno'o.
ing of a person or thing, and being famil.
lar with the habits or qualities that
make up the character of that person OF
thing, and DIR. Helt's wish to his class as
they 90 forth into the world, was that
they might know Christ-not merely
knowing of Him as historical character
but knowing Him and trusting Him as Q
personal Savior, helper and friend.

4 Teacher Surprised.

On last Friday evening Mr.. Thomas
Head and wife were taking tea at the
residence of their father, Mr.. w. H..
Head, on East Southern avenue. While
thus engaged Mr.. Heads pupils took
possession of the parlor, and it was an.
nounced to Tom that a gentleman wish
ed to see him. Thinking that some
book.agent was waiting for him he went
whistling into the parlor, and was greet
ed with such rush and yell from those
assembled that he has hardly recovered.
After the excitement had subsidized to
some extent the pupils presented their
teacher with handsome gold pen and
holder as token of their appreciation of
and friendship for him. In the mean
time lunch had been prepared in the
front lawn, and after the presentation
all fell to with hearty good will. The
occasion was an enjoyable one through
out, and one long to be remembered by
the participants.
